Transmission Fluids: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Dodge Caliber. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Mopar ® CVT+4 is required in the CVT automatic transaxles.

Mopar ® CVT+4 when new is green in color. As the vehicle is driven, the ATF will begin to look darker in color and may eventually become brown. This is normal.  A dark brown/black fluid accompanied with a burnt odor and/or deterioration in shift quality may indicate fluid deterioration or transmission component failure.

BG6 and T355 Manual transaxles require the use of Mopar ® ATF+4 (Automatic Transmission Fluid).
